I don't like them. I don't see a reason to use 'em. They won't ever touch one of my dogs.
However, I will say that two of the dogs that I dogsit wear prong collars, per the owners request, and they have no problem putting them on and get excited doing so and when they are wearing them, they do walk nicely. I just think that other alternatives should be tried first, such as the Easy Walk or the Halti Collar, etc.
I think, just like any other tool (a crate, a squirt bottle, a citronella collar, etc), it can be misused, overused, etc. |
